Nintendo rolled out its final Emerald Rush event for Donkey Kong Bananza in September, and if you never got around to it, or missed out on previous events, we’ve got some exciting news.
According to an announcement on its official Japanese website, these events will be returning starting today (aka 1st October 2026). So, if you did miss any previous statues, the monthly rotation has now restarted!
Nintendo has also shared the repeating events schedule on its website. You can also check out our guide here on Nintendo Life to see what’s returning in the coming months. The final Emerald Rush in September ended with “Bananza Antics”, allowing Kong enthusiasts to unlock Candy Kong and Funky Kong statues.
Of course, to participate in the fun, you’ll need to purchase this paid DLC. DK and Pauline then have access to DK Island.
